Thanks to IHeartDC for the update on stolen pup, Bruno:
“Good news! Bruno is home. I’ve been in touch with one of the owners since the beginning (her discarded purse was found in my neighborhood the day after the car was stolen), and she texted last night to tell me Bruno had been found. I don’t have the details, but I was so relieved and figured others would be too.”
Ed. Note: Will try to update with more details when/if I get them!
